    Meritor unveiled an array of products and services at HDAW. They included:

    • The Meritor SimpleCheck air brake stroke tool. The new Meritor AllFit SimpleCheck air brake stroke measurement tool is now standard with every Meritor automatic slack adjuster. Installed at the base of the air brake chamber pushrod, the SimpleCheck disc provides an accurate marker for visual inspections of applied chamber stroke on cam brake-equipped vehicles. SimpleCheck helps to quickly identify out-of adjustment. The tool also reduces pre-trip inspection time and the need for drivers to perform under-the-trailer inspections for air brake stroke verification.
